I notice that it doesn't actually say there is a spell-checker,
only that you can change the settings for Windows Mail.

It didn't work for me, but this is what Microsoft said.
Configure the spellchecker in Windows Mail
Follow these steps to access and customize the spell checking settings and
options in Windows Mail:
a.. Once you are inside Windows Mail, click on the Tools menu
b.. Choose "Options"
c.. When the Options dialog opens, click on the "Spelling" tab: this is
where Windows Mail centralizes all available spell checking settings you
can configure.
d.. The first option these accessible through the "Always check spelling
before sending" checkbox: if checked, Windows Mail will not let you send
an email message before warning you of any grammatical mistakes or
spelling errors that may have caught.
e.. Windows Mail gives you access to spelling exceptions, listed under
the "When checking spelling, always ignore" section:
. If the "Words in UPPERCASE" checkbox is checked, the Windows Mail
spellchecker will disregard any spelling issues found in uppercase words
(like acronyms).
. If "Words with numbers" is checked, it will likewise ignore words made
in part of numbers (that are likely industry-specific words or technical
jargon).
. The "The original text in a reply or forward" checkbox is checked by
default: by this, Windows Mail means that it will skip checking the
spelling and grammar of emails you receive, or the portion of the email
you send that you have not typed yourself when you reply to an email or
forward it on to someone else.
. Finally, the "Internet Addresses" is also checked by default; when it
is enabled, Windows Mail will ignore Internet addresses that may contain
word in its spell checker.
f.. The last spell checking option Windows Mail offers concerns language:
it is by default set to your operating system's current language, but can
be changed to one of the foreign language dictionaries that ship with
Windows Mail: English, French (France), German (Germany), or Spanish
(International Sort).
g.. Once you're done configuring the Windows Mail spellchecker, click on
the OK button to accept the new settings, and return to your emails.
These are all the options Windows Mail offers for checking the spelling of
your messages; regardless of what you just configured, the new email
window (what you see when you compose new emails, reply to an email, or
forward an email) actually includes in its own spelling button so you can
run the spellchecker even if you have disabled it by default.
